DIRECTOR OF ENTERTAINMENT | OLD STATE SALOON

NOW HIRING

THE PERFECT APPLICANT

Music is your jam. On event night, your charisma is contagious.. Your playlist is perfect, your timing is tailored, and your words wade in the waters of Wit Sea.   The night will be electric with you on the mic as you were established to entertain.  You have a way of getting both teens and seniors to laugh at the same joke, rock out to the same songs, and dance like there’s no tomorrow. When it comes to being the emcee, you’re the best of the best.  Your velvet voice keeps the crowd captivated.  You could command the spotlight but, humbly, you never steal the show.  When you meet with clients to plan the big day, you titillate their imagination with visions of fun piled so high that they topple and get all over everyone.  The music of your career is about to get turned up… way up.  It’s time to join the team at Old State Saloon as our Director of Entertainment.

WHO WE ARE

At Old State Saloon, we do more than serve food and drinks, we create experiences people talk about long after the night ends. From live music and community gatherings to high-energy themed events, we’re building the go-to entertainment destination in Treasure Valley.

As our Director of Entertainment, you’ll help shape the atmosphere, energy, and culture of Old State. We’re looking for someone who thrives on bringing people together, creating unforgettable events, booking talent, building relationships, and turning ordinary nights into packed-house experiences.

Old State isn’t just a bar. It’s a community hub, a gathering place, and one of the fastest-growing entertainment venues in the valley. If you love live events, great people, bold ideas, and creating something bigger than yourself, you’ll fit right in.
